Super Gene Hunting Ground

Although Yang Xiao’s actions were expected by everyone, when Yang Xiao severed Qin Xiaotian’s head with a single sword strike, the entire audience was astounded.

Many couldn’t help but scream out ”Ah” in shock.

In just about half a month, Yang Xiao participated in two life-and-death challenges in succession, killing the brothers from the wealthiest family in the Flying Leopard Empire. Is this Yang Xiao too audacious?

Dean Xinghai, though also unwilling to witness this scene, was helpless.

Seeing Yang Xiao’s Bronze Divine Sword descend, his heart sank, as if he had fallen into an icy abyss.

Vice Dean Deng Nan, Director Zhu Peng, and other academy leaders sighed and shook their heads.

In their eyes, Qin Xiaotian was indeed a talent, with an abundance of family resources and good aptitude. As long as he persisted in his cultivation, he would surely achieve significant accomplishments in the future.

Because of a private fight, the Qin family lost two quite promising sons in succession; Dean Xinghai and others felt incredibly regretful.

Xiao Ling, Yelu Caiyun, Gao Lou, Chen Cangshan, and others breathed a sigh of relief but immediately worried for Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao killing Qin Xiaotian would undoubtedly bring severe repercussions. Qin Xiaotian’s mother was the Flying Leopard Emperor’s own sister, would Wanyan Li let Yang Xiao go?

Would the Qin family let Yang Xiao go?

As for the rest of the audience, apart from being shocked that Yang Xiao killed Qin Xiaotian, they were quickly swayed by another emotion.

Those who participated in the betting and bought into Qin Xiaotian’s victory naturally lost when Qin Xiaotian was killed.

In the entire betting pool, the funds bet on Qin Xiaotian’s victory were about 3.8 billion Crystal Coins,

leaving these people with nothing but tears.

Where there are tears, there are also laughs,

those who bet on Yang Xiao’s victory were overjoyed, with about 2 times the profit.

Gao Lou, Chen Cangshan, Yelu Caiyun, and others each bet 10 million Crystal Coins, meaning they would receive a return of 20 million Crystal Coins.

Instructor Luo Hao sat in a chair with a dejected face; with Yang Xiao’s sword severing Qin Xiaotian’s head, his 100 million Crystal Coins went down the drain.

Luo Hao suddenly remembered Xiao Ling, who bet 700 million Crystal Coins in front of him.

”Damn, a 2x return, 1.4 billion Crystal Coins, even after deducting a 15% commission management fee, there’s still about 1.2 billion Crystal Coins.”

Luo Hao felt a pang of bitterness, realizing that he was not qualified to envy Yang Xiao, much less be his rival in love.

According to the rules, in a life-and-death arena match, the weapons and armor of the deceased party are considered spoils of war belonging to the victor.

Yang Xiao picked up the Broken Rainbow Sword beside Qin Xiaotian and put it into his Space Ring, scanning the surroundings.

With a hum,

the Defense Light Screen disappeared, and Vice Dean Deng Nan flew in, arriving beside Yang Xiao. Glancing at Qin Xiaotian’s corpse on the ground, he declared loudly:

”I declare the life-and-death challenge between Qin Xiaotian and Yang Xiao is now over. Qin Xiaotian is dead, Yang Xiao wins, and Yang Xiao is not required to face any consequences,

Alright, dismissed!”

Yang Xiao nodded to Deng Nan and then leapt outside the arena.

Qin Chuan, Qin He, Wanyan Li, and other members of the Qin family wailed, rushing onto the arena, holding Qin Xiaotian’s body and crying bitterly.

With Qin Xiaotian’s head severed, no Divine Pill could save him.

”Tian’er, you died so tragically, mother’s heart hurts so much....”

Wanyan Li cried aloud in anguish.

Qin Chuan also lamented bitterly.

More than ten thousand spectators sighed heavily, shaking their heads repeatedly.

Once a genius and wealthy figure in the Flying Leopard Empire, he was slain in the blink of an eye.

And Yang Xiao became instantly famous, becoming known throughout the entire Flying Leopard Empire as a genius War General, his Soul Skill and mysterious Bronze Divine Sword radiating with extraordinariness.

Far away, Elder Ye stood atop a thirty-to-forty-meter-tall tree, sighed, shook his head, and turned back to the library.

As the crowds dispersed, the vast arena was left with only Qin Chuan and his wife, holding their son’s corpse and crying bitterly, for the future fortune of the Qin family would also be profoundly affected.

Dean Xinghai, Vice Dean Deng Nan, and others walked over, gently offering words of comfort:

”Boss Qin, the dead cannot be resurrected, please restrain your grief.”

Wanyan Li suddenly stood and shouted furiously at Dean Xinghai:

”Old Xinghai, stop pretending to be the good guy here. My son died at your academy, and you shall bear the responsibility. I, I will not spare your Flying Leopard Academy.”

Wanyan Li had belittled Dean Xinghai several times, and he had always tolerated it, but now he couldn’t help but rage as his wide robe billowed without wind, and he sneered:

”Wanyan Li, do you think I am afraid of you? If not for your brother’s face, I would have kicked you out long ago. A joke, you actually dare threaten me and Flying Leopard Academy. Bring your brother here and see if he dares to threaten me.”

After saying the last sentence, Dean Xinghai waved his sleeve, and a massive force instantly burst forth, surging towards Wanyan Li.

Wanyan Li trembled, flying backward dozens of meters,

thumping down, landing hard on the ground, causing severe pain.

A heavy pressure weighed on her chest, like a giant stone crushing, making it hard to breathe.

Wanyan Li immediately didn’t dare to act rashly, staring dumbfounded at Dean Xinghai.

”Hmph! The one who dares threaten Flying Leopard Academy hasn’t been born yet!”

Dean Xinghai flicked his sleeve and turned to leave.

Only then did Wanyan Li feel a lightening in her chest, able to breathe easily.

Qin He hurried over and softly said:

”Sister-in-law, why do you always provoke Dean Xinghai? Even your brother respects him.”

Deng Nan and others followed the dean away,

as Dean Xinghai instructed:

”Strengthen the management of the entrances and exits of the entire Flying Leopard Academy from strangers, cancel all temporary visitation personnel, additionally, send two Empire Level Advanced Realm individuals to secretly protect Yang Xiao, defending against possible assassination and revenge from the Qin family.”

”Yes, Dean,”

Deng Nan and others followed the dean all the way to the administrative building of the Advanced Academy Department, entering his office together.

”Dean, have you seen Yang Xiao’s Beast Soul?”

Deng Nan asked.

Dean Xinghai was silent for a moment and said:

”His Soul Skill is very strange, I have never seen it before. I heard he is from Earth, could it be related to some Demon Beasts there?”

”The creatures on Earth were mutated in a short time a few years ago using mutation catalyzing fog by the Eldest Prince of the Great Dragon Empire, there shouldn’t be any special Beast Souls, right?”

Dean Xinghai shook his head,

”You don’t understand; Earth has life dating back billions of years. In ancient times, tremendously powerful beings were born on Earth, though these creatures gradually disappeared, their genes continued in some form, hidden in other organisms,

After the Great Dragon Empire took control of Earth, they induced mutations using genetic mutation fog, revealing many peculiar Beast Souls.

I think, Yang Xiao’s Beast Soul should belong to one of those special Beast Souls?”

”Dean, now that Yang Xiao has killed Qin Xiaotian, if the Flying Leopard Emperor comes to blame, how should we respond?”

Dean Xinghai smiled faintly and said:

”Do you think the Emperor of the Flying Leopard Empire is foolish enough to sour relations with our Flying Leopard Academy over Qin Xiaotian?”

”Hmm?”

Everyone was stunned, looking at Dean Xinghai.

Dean Xinghai smiled and said:

”Yang Xiao only killed a Qin family son, not the Flying Leopard Emperor’s son. What’s worth causing a fuss over? The Flying Leopard Empire and the Great Dragon Empire have been at war for years, losing a large portion of their elite experts, now is the time when they urgently need talents,

Our Flying Leopard Academy trains hundreds of Empire Level Advanced Realm super experts for the empire annually, which is no exaggeration to say, is the empire’s talent cradle,

Tell me, is Qin Xiaotian’s life more important, or is our Flying Leopard Academy’s importance to the empire greater?”

Everyone nodded in agreement with the dean’s viewpoint.

Dean Xinghai continued:

”I actually believe Yang Xiao is a rare talent; six months later, our Flying Leopard Academy and Heavenly Dragon Academy have an exchange match, we are in need of candidates. I think some enhanced training for Yang Xiao might surprise us.”
